Based on your running history and overall fitness level, this feature provides an estimate of what your pace could be for the distance you want to run. Trend data shows how your training is having an impact over time. A first-of-its-kind PacePro feature helps keep you on pace with grade-adjusted guidance as you run a course. Something else that is new but fairly simple at this time is that Garmin Connect IQ can be added as a "sport" for installing and uninstalling apps directly from the watch. I have installed music apps that can be uninstalled, and I can select from a couple of other recommended ones to install.

Stay informed when you’re in the snow. This preloaded profile helps distinguish between skiing and climbing. It shows metrics specific to either ascent or descent.The Garmin Fenix 7X is the biggest option in Garmin’s new Fenix 7 series range. It’s also the one to get if you want all the features.

Harness the power of the sun and explore for up to 37 days in smartwatch mode with the Garmin Fenix 7X Sapphire Solar watch. The solar-powered sapphire crystal display promises both unbeatable scratch resistance and a 300% increase in solar gains compared to the Fenix 6 so you can go even longer between charges. The Garmin Fenix 7X continues to one-up its predecessor with improved physiological training metrics, real time stamina, expanded sports profiles, HIIT workouts, Up Ahead feature, pre-installed topographic maps and an integrated flashlight feature. The integrated LED flashlight is one other significant feature that the Fenix 7X Sapphire Solar has that is not present on the Epix. I have a couple of older dogs and regularly get up in the middle of the night to take them out, so find the integrated red light on the Fenix 7X to be an awesome tool that prevents disturbing others in the house while providing great light that keeps my night vision intact. The bright LED has been very useful for me a few times when trying to find things in the dark, and with my ageing 52-year old eyes, it has also served me well at illuminating restaurant menus. For altitude acclimation or sleep monitoring, a Pulse Oxsensor uses light beams at your wrist to gauge how well your body is absorbing oxygen. There’s a Pulse Ox sensor to measure blood oxygen during the night for an additional hit of sleep data, though sleeping with this watch is a challenge. It’s going to prove more useful for assessing your acclimation to altitude, though using this sensor continuously will have a noticeable impact on battery life.We are also able to offer an exchange to a different product if required, please specify this when returning your product.
